A great evening right here in Traverse City with Jocelyn Benson! I've seen up close her unwavering integrity as a leader and her focus on making sure government delivers for every Michigander.

This holiday weekend, as we celebrate the 250th anniversary of our nation's founding, I'll be thinking not just about the history of the United States but about our future.

The court has spoken: Trump's attempt to get political revenge by shutting down the Hudson Tunnel project wasn't just illegal, but "flagrantly" unlawful. This ruling is good news for the thousands of workers building the project and the hundreds of thousands of commuters who will depend on it.

If there's one thing Americans can agree on, it's that there's too much money in politics. But the Supreme Court just decided to demolish some of the last safeguards we had left - creating an even bigger role for special interest spending.

This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious. Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal.

I was proud to join @jonesforar.bsky.social in Little Rock to send a message that there is no such thing as a permanently red state, especially when so many people are seeking leaders who will improve everyday life and make Washington more accountable.

Not only are you not alone if you believe things don't have to be this way. In fact you are part of a powerful American majority, one with the power to decide our future.

Juneteenth reminds us that nothing about freedom can be taken for granted. As we commemorate the end of slavery in the United States, we are also called to reckon with the lasting impacts on Black Americans, and inequality in this country more broadly.

Today in Chicago, Barack and Michelle Obama reminded Americans how we can be our best as a country, just as they did during their eight years in the White House.

The Supreme Court is allowing Republican politicians to wipe out Black political representation and power. We need to make it impossible for politicians or the courts to manipulate these maps once and for all.

This year we have a real opportunity to prove that there is no such thing as a permanently red state or district. @jonesforar.bsky.social is a scientist, devoted to his community, and knows how to build coalitions - just the kind of leader we need in Congress.

Being an American isn't about your ancestry or ethnicity. It's about fidelity to the meaning of this country - its revolutionary, threefold promise of political equality, economic opportunity, and personal liberty.

Rev. Jesse Jackson's example and legacy have been on my mind a lot lately as we confront the challenges of our moment. It was an honor to join the Annual Rainbow PUSH Coalition Conference, the first since his passing, for a conversation with Yusef Jackson.

Who knows what the President meant when he said he loves the inflation - but it's clear that inflation keeps getting worse, while he stays focused on anything but the cost of living.

Inflation is growing worse, and the president is fixated on all the wrong things - building a ballroom, making himself immune from audits, and waging a war he started without a plan to end it. Where is the Republican plan to make life more affordable in America?

Despite being under Republican control, the House just defied President Trump on the Iran war. No amount of lying or bullying by the White House can make Americans forget we're paying for a senseless war. Now even some GOP Members of Congress are recognizing they ultimately answer to us - not him.

Looking forward to seeing @debhaalandnm.bsky.social become New Mexico's next Governor. Congratulations on tonight's primary victory, and onward to November!

Something remarkable is happening in Iowa with @joshturek4iowa.bsky.social's campaign. Congratulations on earning the nomination, Josh. Looking forward to hitting the trail with you soon.

Politics doesn’t have to feel like something punching you in the face every time you check the news. We can come together around big, common-sense ideas that most Americans agree on.

Standing in solidarity with the hardworking men and women of @steelworkers.bsky.social in Whiting, Indiana, who have been locked out for more than two months.

I've been calling grassroots donors to say thank you for their support. Being on the road takes resources, and I don't take it lightly when someone chooses to chip in a few dollars to make this work possible. One of those calls was with Jon in New Mexico. Here's how that conversation went:

We owe all that we have to the selfless Americans, in our own generation and back through time to the Founding, who gave their lives defending our nation.

In the Hispanic Nomar neighborhood of Wichita, an organization called Empower is providing entrepreneurs with the tools and support to turn talent and hard work into thriving food businesses.

Great visit to Western North Carolina this week - from learning about Jamie Ager's small business while visiting his farm, to making the case for the campaign underway.

The Montana Plan is bipartisan, common-sense, and one of the best opportunities in a long time to put Citizens United where it belongs: in the ashbin of history.

Seeing coverage of Congress as a young man in Indiana, I remember watching Barney Frank run circles around bad-faith arguments with his formidable intellect and unique political style.

So much depends on whether our system, and our leaders, speak to what is best in us - or what is worst in us.

Praying for those murdered today in their place of worship and for San Diego’s entire Muslim community. We must all stand united to reject such violence and stand against hate in every form.

Americans agree that corporate money in politics has gone way too far. This year, Montanans have a chance to do something about that.

JD Vance remains busy with name-calling, but the Trump Administration's economic failures are there for all to see.

Instead of trying to earn more votes, Republican officials across the South are executing a systematic effort to dismantle Black political representation in Congress through gerrymandering. It's time for broad reforms to end this kind of gerrymandering for good.

It was a pleasure to spend time with Prime Minister Carney last week in Toronto.

Inflation up dramatically - a direct result of Trump's Iran war. Blaming others won't help. Without a change of course, Americans will keep paying the price.

Once Democrats do win back power in Washington, we must not think our job is to restore a broken prior status quo. Here's what should come next:

I grew up in a region where they told us that if you wanted to make something of yourself, you had to get out. After I did, I began to understand what it means to be from somewhere.

I love a good road trip, but this is brutally out of touch: a Trump Cabinet member making a documentary about himself while regular families can’t afford road trips anymore, because Trump and his war put gas prices through the roof.

Donald Trump is preoccupied with pet projects like securing taxpayer funding for his gilded ballroom, plastering his face everywhere, and renaming airports after himself.

I saw firsthand while campaigning with Chedrick Greene what a committed leader and excellent public servant he is. Congratulations on your victory tonight - I know you’ll continue serving fellow Michiganders well in the State Senate.

You can't lower gas prices by blurting out the names of a few Democrats. The administration needs to stop its crazed policies that cause so much economic pain. This happened on Trump's watch because he doubled fuel prices by taking our country to war, which drove Spirit out of business. Obviously.

We now know the Iran war price tag is more like $50 billion - hundreds of dollars per household - and counting. It's enough to cover all the health insurance premium credits that the Republicans got rid of for this year, and next. It could save rural hospitals, pay teachers, fix roads.

Today's Supreme Court decision reverses hard-won progress under the Voting Rights Act.

The Montana Plan offers a practical, lawful solution to tackle one of the biggest issues underlying everything else we care about: reclaiming democratic control and putting power back in the hands of regular people, not special interests.

Wherever my travels take me, I find that a majority of Americans agree (with each other, and with Democrats) on far more issues than the media or algorithms would lead us to believe.

Reforming our system can sound academic - but it's key to delivering what America needs: sane foreign policy, higher wages, affordable housing, guaranteed health care, and a fair tax system.

Looking forward to stopping by @colbertlateshow.bsky.social one last time. Tune in tonight!

We owe each other a country where at least the things that two-thirds of Americans can agree on actually get done. When something is broken in this country, we have to do what it takes to fix it. Thank you, Tulsa, for the warm welcome back - and for showing us what a better future looks like.

However you've lined up politically in the past, if you're worried about where our country is headed, you belong in this conversation. Here are my full opening remarks from last night in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Thankful to the people of Oklahoma for such a warm welcome back.

Don't let anyone tell you that an area is too red or too far out of reach for our message. Just look at how many people turned out on a Saturday night in April, in a gym in Oklahoma.

Many people are asking, so here’s my “why.” Thank you, Kansas Democrats, for an inspiring Friday evening together.

When he launched this war, the President vowed regime change and “unconditional surrender.” What has he gotten? We went from Ayatollah Khamenei to Ayatollah Khameini Jr. - and are now negotiating over a 10-point plan written by the Iranians.
